To request admission, parents should write or call the Greenwood
Admissions Office and forward all application materials and relevant
records
to the attention of the admissions director. Please include the application,
fee, recent test scores, school reports, and language or psychological
evaluations. If, after reviewing and discussing these materials,
we
determine the Greenwood program might be helpful, we will invite
the student and parents for a personal interview.
Dates and Deadlines
Greenwood applications are welcomed throughout the
year. Because of the limited number of student spaces available
at Greenwood, we encourage early application to maximize your chances
for enrollment in the next fall term.
- Please telephone the admissions director at (802) 387-4545 to discuss your child’s educational
needs and the school’s program, as well as obtain answers to any
questions you may have about Greenwood.
- A student application, forms for teacher evaluations,
and a list of other application information required is available
on the application page, or
may be obtained by calling, e-mailing or faxing the Admissions
Office. Parents are responsible for making certain that the forms
are completed and returned to the Admissions Office in a timely
manner.
- Mail your completed application to us. Be sure
to include the student application form, the application fee,
school reports, recommendations, and language and psycho-educational
evaluations.
- Once a candidate’s application file is complete,
the Greenwood’s Admissions Office reviews it.
- We ask that an offer of admission be accepted
within two weeks of notification, at which time a $5000 deposit
must be submitted to hold the space. Tuition is payable by June
1st, unless it is a midyear enrollment, in which case payment
arrangements will be made with Greenwood’s Headmaster.
Applying to schools can be a time-consuming process,
and we are happy to assist families in answering questions and resolving
difficulties that arise during the application process. Please call
or e-mail us if you have any questions or concerns.
Late Applications
Are you late? If you have not begun the application
process by May 1st, then you are considered a late applicant. Nonetheless,
complete and send in your application as soon as possible. Space
permitting and if appropriate, there may be a possiblity of admission.
Midyear Applications
Occasionally, a student will leave Greenwood during
the school year, and a space will become available. When this occurs,
first priority is given to our waiting list, after which new applicants
will be considered. If you are interested in a midyear admittance,
notify our Admissions Office and ask them to contact you in that
event.
Visits
While student interviews are required for admission
and typically take place after the completed application has been
reviewed and a student has been determined eligible for consideration,
parents are welcome to visit Greenwood with their child at any time
in order to learn more about Greenwood and its programs. Interviews
and visits are an excellent opportunity for both parents and prospective
students to meet some of our faculty, observe a class, become more
familiar with our academic program, tour our campus, dine with our
students, and, in general, experience student life at Greenwood.
Visits may be scheduled at any time throughout the school year or
summer. Please call the Admissions Office to set up a parent/student
interview and campus tour.
